Juno Temple

From time to time, theres a public figure who catches my eye and lately it's been Juno Temple. She's an amazing English Actress, with a unique look and style. She chooses roles and movies that push the envelope and i really admire her talent. She's only 20, but it seems like she has a lengthy, bright road ahead of her. You might know her from Atonement, Notes on a Scandal, Wild Child, and Year One. (she's been in much more). I'm trying to see all of her movies, because it's stars like these that I like to follow their careers.

NEW YEARS* {{ 2010 }}

I've been away for awhile so I'm gonna probably be writing a lot of new posts.

These are pictures from my New Year's extravaganza! I always seem to have a crazzy time when bringing in the New Years, because I always spend it with my best friend Adama. It's like tradition. I have a lot of best friends but I always seem to count down the new year with her* We went to a club, followed by a after party at the hotel. The night was filled with laughs and dancing = 2 things i cant live without!

What I'm Wearing

I bought this dress from one of my fav stores, Forever 21. I picked it out like 2 or 3 weeks in advanced and promised myself that I would save it for New Years* I lovee it*

enjoy*

Rihanna

First off let me say im SOOOOOOO sorry for neglecting you lately, but...I'M BACK! :)
I'm adding this video, because i love rihanna. She's one of my many role models...my obsession continues.
Also, watching this clip made me more eager to fulfill my dreams. I really want to be an entertainment journalist and watching Alexa Chung basically acting out my dream job made me even more eager.
I'm determined to make my dreams become a reality*

Dame Pa' Matala & Rebel Diaz

Dame Pa' Matala!

Dame Pa' Matala (You give me..You kill it)

They a great revolutionary band from Venezuela. They gave a great performance at CUNY college. They're not mainstream yet, but they are blowing up the underground music world. The message of most of their songs is peace, which i loved. Now although i didn't understand all of their songs, I was able to decipher most of them. There songs kept the crowd on their feet with their lively rythm and crazy antics. Intsturments included the bangos, guitar, flute, and maracas* By the end of the show i became infatuated with the lead singer. {He reminded me of Gael Garcia Bernal}

Later we headed to this great Mexican restaurant called Picante in Harlem. We had dinner with the band! I loved it.

I'm trying to upload the video i shot of them, so wish me luck....

Rebel Diaz was the headliner for Dame Pa'Matala and they were great too. They also had the same message of Peace and Tranquility. I don't really have any pics of them from the concert but here's what they look like.

The Brutal Beating of Derrion Albert, 16

OMG!
This video is really disturbing and before i could even finish it tears were streaming down my face. I really couldnt believe what I was seeing.

For those of you who dont know what this video is about, it's about a 16 year old boy named Derrion Albert who was beaten to death. This vicious act took place in Chicago. The boy was on the honor roll and said to be a good student and kid. Sources still dont know the cause of this situation. There are two stories out right now: 1) They beat him to death because he wouldn't join their gang or 2) He was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. No one...i repeat, NO ONE deserves that no matter what the circumstances. I swear right now im shaking, because i still can't believe what i saw.
What I cant understand is why everybody is sitting around just watching what those stupid bastards were going to do next instead of calling the police? Why the hell were they taping it instead of calling 911? What really got me was the person recording just sayin "damn" or "oh shit" but still did NOTHING!!! When is the fcukin violence going to END!!

The part that almost made me scream in fear is when they were trying to pick him up off the ground and all you notice is his limp body. It scared me to death. OMG!!!!
I honestly cant think straight right now. If anybody watching this has any information on the people in the video please call 312-747-8272 (Chicago Police Dept.)
When I calm down and dry my eyes i'll try to write more....
